THE DISTANCE

So my fellows! The plan is to publish routes from Stayer bods here for you to follow, ride for yourselves and pass around. In this time of social distance, we can still have a shared experience of the great outdoors on our bikes. In addition, there is a Strava club set up here if you are desireth of a little competition en route. Cycle events may be scuppered for the time being but, as a great scientist once said! 'life will find a way' and as someone else said 'if you build it they will come'.
So share the ride and Stay(er) the distance (insert winking cheeky emoji face in your imagination here). If you have a route you would like to share then feel free to ping it across with a pic or two of the sights, sounds and a little run down of what to expect and we will feature and share our favourites.

Route #3 Sacombe Gravel(the long and the short of it)contributed by Tom Elwood Here are two gravel routes contributed by Tom Elwood from Team LDN. This guy really knows his grit.

Route #2 LBK out and back again
contributed by Phil Diprose of The Ride Journal Today could be perfect. Leaving the house early this morning it begins with blues skies, already it is looking like the best days weather of the year. Spring has been reluctant to come, and the previous winter was challengingly wet to say the least, so finally it seems like my reward has arrived.......continue reading here.
